Veragouth and Xilema for Studiopepe: Omphalos, Campo Base

Milan Design Week 2023

At the Salone del Mobile 2023, Veragouth and Xilema are involved in Campo Base, a manifesto design project by Studiopepe together with five other Italian architecture firms: Massimo Adario, Giuliano Andrea Dell’Uva, Eligo Studio, Marcante Testa, Hannes Peer.

Studiopepe presents a design narrative from symbolic architectural proportions to individual elements that are linked to archetypes and the collective imagination. The room is called Omphalos, the navel of the world according to the ancients. The most secret, intimate room, the theatre of our emotions and rituals. Veragouth and Xilema projected and realised the installation in wood, studying a new special texture for the occasion. Studiopepe’s material research meets the innovative strength and experience of Veragouth and Xilema.

Omphalos / Studiopepe at Campo Base

The room curated by Studiopepe is called Omphalos, the “navel” or ancient centre of the world. This is the most secret, intimate room, the theatre where our emotions and rituals unfold. The architecture is that of a tent, the lieit motiv of Campo Base, a fluid and impermanent architecture featuring two smaller, circular architectonic sculptures. The first is a tearoom made of handcrafted wood, a place for meditation that echoes the Japanese concept of Tokonoma. Whereas the other, dedicated to the Sibyl, is a diametrically opposed room of questions and answers, made of split limestone. The exterior hosts a place of encounters, dominated by an almond-shaped rug in knotted wool, a powerful symbol of secrecy, the spiritual essence, the mystery that each of us holds inside. The furnishings are also designed by Studiopepe, in previously unseen versions in precious or humble materials made precious by the artisanal workmanship. The raw linen tent walls feature hand-painted apotropaic drawings reminiscent of the strokes of people who would paint their homes with protective symbols.

Every piece present in the project is handmade by artisans, from the noble and pure raw materials: solid wood, limestone, travertine marble and marble onyx, brushed metal, knotted virgin wool, and sculpted wood. Two symbolic objects of affection complete this stratified design project, rich with citations and exemplary of the Studio’s distinctive style.

Studiopepe is an architecture and design studio founded in Milan, in 2006, by Arianna Lelli Mami and Chiara Di Pinto. Studiopepe’s work focuses on design and formal research which spans the fluid world that encompasses architecture, art, and design. Their investigative field includes interiors, architecture, design, and creative direction. The language used in their designs is stratified and rich with citations, a blend of poetic vision and rigorous design. Studiopepe curates international projects for retail, hotels, and private commissions, along with their team of 15 professionals, including architects, interior designers, and product designers.
